Welcome back to my series on getting started with myAvatar ScriptLink. Today, we are looking at testing. As tempting as it may be, we should not wait to test our ScriptLink APIs until they are available in production. We want to test our code before it impacts the users. In our first test, we will set up SoapUI to send a request to our development environment and verify the response.

When we left off, we had created our first Hello World ScriptLink API in .NET using C# and Visual Basic. If we created them correctly, the we should be able to call the RunScript method with the HelloWorld parameter and receive an Error Code 3 with the ErrorMsg "Hello, World!'. Let’s test that.

Most of my IT career has involved the implementation, maintenance, and configuration of electronic health record (EHR) solutions in the behavioral health space. Much of this work has been the usual suspects of security, report writing, end user support, and process design. However, it has also involved a healthy dose of extending the EHR to add additional features and capabilities. The Netsmart myAvatar EHR solution includes a variety of options for extending the solution.

In this series of articles, we will be looking at the myAvatar ScriptLink feature. ScriptLink is a feature that enables a form in myAvatar to connect to a separate web application (consume a SOAP API) to interact with the form or trigger additional processes, such as sending an email. A common example of how to use ScriptLink is to score a clinical outcomes tool and provide a prompt.
